Penetration testing – What is it? A penetration test, often referred to as a pen test, is a cybersecurity practice designed to assess and evaluate the security of computer systems, networks, applications, or other information technology environments. The primary objective of a penetration test is to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses that could be exploited by malicious actors to gain unauthorized access, disrupt services, or compromise data integrity. Pentesting involves simulated attacks on a system to assess its resilience and security controls.
